I want a boat

 

In the post one day came this beautiful necklace by Kathryn Crocker as part of my latest Flutterbydaisy Trade... this petal found a pretty fluttery dress I made for her then took it to play on her flowery swing in the forest... one day we will go for a picnic there together... lalalala...

Last night we made a Lady of Shallot set to take the photos, I'd like to live in it.  I want a boat now just that little bit more... one that really goes somewhere though, not this cardboard one.  That's it - I'm saving for a narrow boat to tour the canals of Britain then France... I wonder what I will call her... The Flutterby? too obvious?... hmmm; new postcards ahoy...

... and some more delightful fairytale prints by Ginger Kelly I found whilst looking for The Lady of Shallot, clearly I especially love the one with the giant Bunny...

Tales From the Tree House

I'll buy it and it will be pretty, have wheels and go places far away; on travels and adventures and maybe you will come and we will discover things under rocks and live there in the middle, we write and create stuff and loll, stare at the sky then go there, we or just me or both. I've been here for a while and sometimes I need to do that to re-figure my brain; give it a shake, makes me go away which is needed and now I'm back but not to the same place, needed again. A house on a hill and wheels and all in between are nice dreams but no-one knows what will happen. I just know what I don't want and I know I always say that, but at least this time a deeper part of me means it not just the top layer that's not sure of anything including which half of the sandwich to eat first (not a metaphor) I can't wait for all those things you've wrote to me about earlier and before... I can't wait 'till tomorrow... I can't wait for my wheels - and my real ones.
